Grant, O God, that your holy, life-giving Spirit would move every human heart so that barriers which divide us might be dismantled, so that mistrust and suspicion disappear, so that hate comes to an end. May we live without divisions and celebrate you as our one creator, God who is great and who guides us in ways of peace. Amen.
